They particularly commended the measures taken to address issues related to Afghan transit and combat smuggling, which are seen as key factors contributing to the recent price drop.
One resident commented, "God willing, petrol prices will continue to decrease, and this might also lead to a reduction in inflation, as high petrol prices are causing increased prices in other areas." The overall mood in Rawalpindi was optimistic about further price reductions.
